I would think you’d want to be smoke free before your surgery.

Why does that get you so angry you want to blow smoke in their faces? They’re trying to get you through the procedure as risk free as possible.

Wow. That’s not at all what I said.

I have no problem with surgeons (one of my daughter’s surgeons chews tobacco) saying that a patient has to quit smoking for valid medical reasons.

I’m saying that I resent anti-smoking nazis shoving their agenda down my throat. I have to quit, I want to quit, but they make it harder.

I’ve spoken to many, many smokers who say that anti-smoking ads and commercials make it harder for them to quit. Every person I’ve asked about this said that they have to intentionally avoid these things when they’re trying to quit.

I think that it’s human nature to be contrary.
